To the best of my knowledge, this is not an FCC-licensed station, and there's no coverage in

GNG. (And if the article is to be believed, "WKUI" doesn't even sign on until November 1 — for quite a few years now, we've been trying to move away from having premature articles on unlaunched stations even when there is verifiable evidence of at least a construction permit.) Unsurprisingly for this topic area, an earlier PROD nomination was contested by the creator. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 01:48, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

This is a hoax obvious enough to be a speedy delete G3. Nearest 103.5s are in Holyoke, Massachusetts, and a pair of shared-time LPFMs in New Haven. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 00:56, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per above. Looks like a hoax and agree that the FCC would not allow a cell tower to be used as a transmission point. Jip Orlando (talk) 13:41, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Indeed this looks like a hoax — radio stations, even LPFM, don't broadcast from 5G celphone transmitters on flagpoles, and Bristol is nowhere near far enough from Simsbury that the FCC would ever license a 103.5 in Bristol while there's still a 103.5 on the air in Simsbury — and even in the very unlikely event that it it's real and somebody's just wrong about some of the details, planned future radio stations still don't get Wikipedia articles in advance of actually being
reliably sourceable as being on the air. Bearcat (talk) 16:00, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply

Delete per above. No reliable sources support the existence of this supposed radio station. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 13:58, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: FWIW, the address mentioned in the article is the address of a condominium complex. wizzito | say hello! 04:28, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
